We only have cows and ducks in our garden and know that the animals in the garden have 20 legs and 14 eyes. How many cows and ducks do we have

Answers

Answer 1

The number of cows and ducks in the garden are 3 and 4 respectively.

Solve the system of linear equations

Let the numbers of cows be x and the number of ducks is y.

Total number of legs=20

Total number of eyes=14

Linear equation for the total number of legs in the garden,

4x+2y=20 -(1)

Linear equation for the total number of eyes in the garden,

2x+2y=14 -(2)

Solve the system of the two linear equations to find the values of x and y.

Subtract equation (1) from equation (2), and we get,

2x=6

[tex]x=\frac{6}{2}\\[/tex]

x=3

Substitute the value of x in equation (1), and we get,

4(3)+2y=20

12+2y=20

2y=20-12

2y=8

[tex]y=\frac{8}{2}\\[/tex]

y=4

Number of cows=3

Number of ducks=4

Answer:

I will assume the equation is supposed to be f(x) = x^2 – 5x + 12 since it is said to be a quadratic equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached graph.

The value of f(–10) = 82     False

      f(-10) = (-10)^2 - 5*(-10) + 12

At 7:00 am Wesley complete his third shift if Wesley and two of his friends are driving cross country nonstop and have agreed to take turns driving in 7-hour shifts option (C) is correct.

What is an arithmetic operation?

It is defined as the operation in which we do the addition of numbers, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It has a basic four operators that is +, -, ×, and ÷.

We have:

Wesley and two of his friends are driving cross country nonstop and have agreed to take driving in 7-hour shifts.

Wesley’s first shift starts at 6:00 am

6:00 am = 6h 0m

= 6 + 7

= 13 h = 1:00 PM (Wesley's starts to rest)

Wesley will take a rest for 14 hours (7 + 7)

First shift = 7 + 14 = 21

Second shift = 7 + 14 = 21

Third shift = 7 = 7

= 21 + 21 + 7 = 49

= 49/24 = 2 days + 1 hour

6h + 1h = 7h = 7:00 am

Thus, at 7:00 am Wesley complete his third shift if Wesley and two of his friends are driving cross country nonstop and have agreed to take turns driving in 7-hour shifts option (C) is correct.

The sum of the internal angles of a triangle is of 180º.The sum of an angle with it's external angle is also of 180º.

Hence:

x + y + 70 = 180.y + 3x - 10 = 180 -> y = 190 - 3x.

Then:

x + y + 70 = 180

x + 190 - 3x + 70 = 180.

Answers

½ 0r 50% is the probability that the student studies Art and biology.

What is Probability?

Probability is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event . i.e. Probability  means possibility.

According to the question,

Total number of students in the group;

n = 25 students

No. of students that study both art and biology;

n(P u Q) = 6

No. of students that study biology but not art;

n(Q u P') = 10

No. of students that study none of the 3 subjects;

n(P' u Q') = 3

So,

No. of students that study only arts is;

n(P n Q') = 25 - 6 - 10 - 3 = 6

Since,  n(P u Q) = 6

Therefore by using formula;

n(P) = n(P u Q) + n(P n Q')

n(P) = 6 + 6

n(P) = 12

Hence,

Probability of the students who studies Art and biology is;

P(P n Q) = [tex]\frac{6}{12}[/tex]

P(P n Q) = ½  i.e. 50%

gift before and after the discount?

PLS HELP SOLVE !!!

Answers

Answer:

Before discount = $61.25

After discount = $49.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Discount = $12.25Coupon = 20%

The price of the gift before the discount is 100%.

If the $12.25 discount was 20% of the purchase price, then:

⇒ original price (before discount) = (12.25 / 20) × 100 = $61.25

To find the price after the discount, simply subtract the discount from the found original price:

⇒ $61.25 - $12.25 = $49.00

Conclusion

Before discount price = $61.25After discount price = $49.00

On a map of scale 1:20000 the area of a forest is 50cm^2.On another map the area of the forest is 8cm^2.Find the scale of the second map.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 1: 50000... If you look down here↓:

Step-by-step explanation:

With a scale of 1:20000, a unit length on the map represents a length of 20000. So 1 cm^2 = 1 cm* 1 cm which represents 20000*20000 cm^2 will be = 4*10^8 cm^2.

50 cm^2 represents that 4*50*10^8 cm^2 = 200* 10^8 cm^2.

Now, on the other hand, the map has the same. 200* 10^8 is represented by 8 cm^2. So the scale is sqrt [ 200* 10^8 / 8 ] = sqrt [ 25* 10^8 ] = 5* 10^4 = 50000.

Therefore the scale on the second map is 1: 50000.
